Buying guide
A princess cut is square from the top, with pointed corners and many facets below. On a blue stone the facets add sparkle and keep the color from looking dark. A basket of prongs holds each square, guards its corners and sets the stud close to the ear.
Sapphire is corundum and rates 9 on the Mohs scale, so it resists scratches very well. A lab-grown blue sapphire has the same chemistry, hardness and color as a natural sapphire; it is grown in controlled conditions instead of mined, and it costs much less than a natural stone of the same size. Lab-grown blue sapphire is the birthstone for September. Clean the studs with warm, soapy water and a soft brush.
The studs come from 0.5 to 10 carats total weight. Gold is offered in 10K, 14K or 18K. White gold, platinum and silver give the blue a crisp setting, while yellow and rose gold make it look richer. Prices start under $200, and many pairs cost about $400.
